Usually the DA in high profile cases dosent want to be responsible for taking it to court. They can then claim its out of their hands then if it dosent go to court. In the states a D.A. has enough power to charge you instantly with or without any evidence. My friend got his law degree in the States and he told me that his law professor would joke about cases going to a grand jury. If the D.A wanted to charge a sandwich there would be no problem because thats how easy a it is for them to charge you if they want to.
